Attend Black Hat DC on us, EH-Net. The Washington, DC version of the world's premier technical event for ICT security experts is being held February 18 - 21, 2008. Featuring hands-on training courses and Briefings presentations with lots of new content-including a focus on wireless security and offensive attack analysis. Network with 400+ delegates and review products from leading vendors in a relaxed setting, including Diamond sponsor Microsoft. This should be a great incentive to really get those forums hopping with participation. At stake is a Passport Admission Ticket worth $1595. Good luck.

We'd also like to thank Black Hat for continuing to support our own security event, ChicagoCon. Our Spring 2008 event will be held May 12 - 18, 2008. They are a rare organization indeed and deserve our full support.

Participation is the ONLY way to win. Start a thread that sparks lots of interest; share thoughts and experiences; help a newbie... quality is more important than quantity.
